I didn't get super far last time, but a few games I was planning to play fell through and so I have time to try this one again!

Let us begin shall we! Any tips, tricks, advice, etc are welcome!

Part 1 - Dark Knight Cecil

So we start out with Cecil and some dudes on an airship. A few airships are seen, actually. They inform Cecil that they will soon be arriving over Baron.



It seems they've done something they aren't super happy about



That'll do it



Sounds like excuses to me

But before the conversation can go further, we are attacked by some monsters and Cecil shows off his cool skillz

Apparently there have been many more monster attacks recently



Considering this is a video game, yes probably.

We land in Baron and are greeted by an unfriendly fellow who is pleased that I have the crystal



So he takes me to see the king



Suspicious



Wooow really? Way to go behind my back Baigan



So I go in and give him the Crystal



He didn't take that well



Not well at all...



You just fired me and now you're giving me a job? Make up your mind King Kingsly



Just then, Kain bursts in all kung fu style, beating up the guards, sending them flying through windows

[Note: I may have taken some creative liberties with the story]



Cool, now I get a travel buddy



Yeah I don't... I don't know about that one

So I go chat things up with Kain and get some ~backstory~



Evil reasons



Cute

So I talk to the common folk and steal their treasures and such and head towards my room



Yes?



Kay



Yes I got that, thank you



But Cecil is not in the mood for chuckles



His evil majesty

So I finally get to go to bed and Cecil is having trouble sleeping, because he's staying up thinking about moral dilemmas and other such things

Take it from me, those never help you sleep



Rosa came to see me just as she said



By doing my job? Yes that is very strange behavior



Poor Cecil. Can't even look at her



D'awww



Not sure why they can't be together... I may have found out in the bit I played but I have forgotten. Are Dark Knights like Priests?

So Cecil heads to bed and we awake for our new journey the next day



No



Or that



And that's our introduction!
